“Lindsay’s Yellow Rose” - Hand-Dyed Silk Wall Hanging
Soft layers of color bring this yellow rose to life, capturing the look of petals touched by rain. The artist used multiple washes of alcohol, dye, and water to create the textured surface, giving the piece a gentle sense of depth and movement.
Painted on 100% silk habotai, the artwork measures 14 x 15 inches. Silk dyes are permanent, though it is recommended to avoid direct sunlight to preserve the color. The piece can be framed in grey, wood, or black, or mounted on a white canvas with a 1.5‑inch profile that creates a clean border and allows for protected outdoor display once sealed with acrylic medium.
Artist Carol Sullivan’s work is shaped by a lifetime spent around boats, coastal travel, and the shifting moods of nature, which she interprets through sea, sky, flora, and fauna. Her silk‑dye process ranges from loose and impressionistic to controlled and detailed, with constant experimentation keeping her work fresh and evolving. A graduate of the Maryland Institute College of Art, she has developed unique textile techniques—including gyotaku fish printing—and her fabric art has been featured in galleries in Maryland, Maine, and the Bahamas with an international following.
